I had a feeling about this show and boy was I right. There was something catching my attention about Yellow Ostrich from the beginning, though I wish I had more time with their new album prior to this show. It's going to end up where I keep listening to these guys, liking them more & more, then really wishing I could see them again. Hopefully I don't have to wait for another album to do so.
Opening was Cleveland's How to Breath Under Water. This was my first chance seeing this local, all-female band - which I found particularly exciting. I can't say I was blown away, but I would totally encourage these ladies to keep it up. 1, 2, 3 was up next and I particularly enjoyed them. Pretty straight-up rock, though I particularly liked the lead singer's voice, sounding similar to that of Tallest Man on Earth (I just love stand-out voices). They also had a real genuine quality that kind of reminded me of Poison Control Center, though with a little less crazy (I mean that in a good way, all around).

Yellow Ostrich really changed up the lighting and just went to town. Again, another voice right up my alley… Here's my favorite track from their new album:
They continued on what seemed like way too short of a set - but that's always how it goes on a really good show. Here's a clip from my first favorite track of theirs:
And finally some photos… I'm still just a bit speechless as to how much I enjoyed this band.
